By the editors · 2 min readLavender and bergamot create a classic aromatic opening with herbal freshness and bright citrus shimmer. Vetiver and patchouli soon introduce an earthy green heart that is deepened by cedar's dry woodiness. Jasmine provides a subtle floral accent that never dominates the primarily aromatic and woody structure. Amber and musk in the base offer a warm, slightly powdery dry-down that feels comforting and skin-close. The scent evolves steadily from fresh to woody-resinous over several hours of wear. Projection remains moderate throughout, lasting six to eight hours, ideal for work or casual occasions in spring or fall.
